Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, unsweetened shredded coconut, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until it is lightly golden and fragrant. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
Meanwhile, prepare the chocolate filling. Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Do not let it boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to melt the chocolate.
Add the vanilla extract and whisk the mixture until smooth and glossy.
Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm.
Before serving, garnish the pie with sweetened whipped cream and toasted shredded coconut if desired.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your Chocolate Coconut Pie!
